HEADER FILE¶

Defined in SDL3/SDL_hints.h

SYNOPSIS¶

#include "SDL3/SDL.h"

#define SDL_HINT_ALLOW_ALT_TAB_WHILE_GRABBED SDL_ALLOW_ALT_TAB_WHILE_GRABBED"

DESCRIPTION¶

By default, SDL emulates Alt+Tab functionality while the keyboard is grabbed and your window is full-screen. This prevents the user from getting stuck in your application if you've enabled keyboard grab.

The variable can be set to the following values:

• "0": SDL will not handle Alt+Tab. Your application is responsible for
handling Alt+Tab while the keyboard is grabbed.

• "1": SDL will minimize your window when Alt+Tab is pressed (default)

This hint can be set anytime.

AVAILABILITY¶

This hint is available since SDL 3.1.3.
